Kung Fu Panda is back, and Indian audiences can’t get enough! The animated martial arts film, directed by Mike Mitchell, has clawed its way to impressive box office numbers in its first twelve days. Read further to know how Kung Fu Panda 4 is creating new records at the Indian box office.
As of its second Tuesday, Kung Fu Panda 4 boasts an estimated collection of 26.75 crore, surpassing the lifetime earnings of Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom (26 crore) at the Indian box office. This early success indicates a bright future for Po and the Furious Five. The film will likely dethrone Skyfall (30 crore) and Ant-Man And The Wasp (30.60 crore) in the coming days. However, a true test awaits: can Kung Fu Panda 4 conquer the titans of The Dark Knight Rises (33 crore) and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (34.50 crore) before the end of its second week? Check out the list of Highest-Grossing Hollywood Films At The Indian Box Office.
The film’s strong performance can be attributed to several factors. Firstly, positive critical reception has fueled audience interest. Secondly, the franchise’s enduring popularity, particularly among younger viewers, has ensured consistent ticket sales. Notably, the English version of Kung Fu Panda 4 is the dominant force, contributing a significant 13.98 crore to the total collection.

However, the film’s multilingual release strategy, featuring dubbed versions in Hindi (2.84 crore), Tamil (1.56 crore), and Telugu (0.35 crore), has resonated with regional audiences as well. This approach ensures a wider reach and caters to the diverse Indian market.
Kung Fu Panda 4’s box office journey is particularly impressive, considering its opening day collection of 2.25 crore wasn’t earth-shattering. However, the film demonstrated impressive growth over the weekend, jumping to 4 crore on Saturday and a healthy 5.25 crore on Sunday. Weekdays typically see a dip, but Kung Fu Panda 4 maintained a steady pace, averaging around 1-2 crore each day. This consistent performance throughout the week indicated positive audience reception and strong word-of-mouth, propelling the film’s box office dominance.
With its second-weekend numbers mirroring the third-highest for an animation film in India (behind Frozen 2), Kung Fu Panda 4 has shown remarkable resilience. The film’s trajectory suggests it has a strong chance of surpassing the final box office numbers of its predecessor, Kung Fu Panda 3 (35 crore). However, a looming threat approaches in the form of Godzilla x Kong, a highly anticipated monster mash releasing on 29th March. While Kung Fu Panda 4 appears to have the momentum to weather some competition, reaching a final tally exceeding 40 crore might be a difficult feat. Whether it can maintain its dominance and reach even greater heights remains to be seen, but the Dragon Warrior’s return to India has undoubtedly been a box-office success story so far.
